Sorry about the green tarp in pic 3, I have a few projects the rain has gotten in the way of.
The blue tarp in pic 4 is my son's sand box tarp cover.
Nice blooms and garden shot TD!! DJ is a knockout.
Mike, Thanks!
Hemlady, Great Blooms! I like all of them! Have you ever had Strawberry Candy poly before? I don't think mine has ever had a poly. I'll be watching more closely now.
I would be mad about somebody tearing up my plants to. I have wildlife tear up plants every now and then but they are wild animals. People should know better. Maybe you had 2 legged wild animals on our street and they attacked your plants. lol Hope they leave your pretty blooms alone. We can't enjoy them if jerks are breaking them off.
Gingerjar, Nice Blooms! They sure are pretty!
I think Strawberry Candy has had a few polys over the years. I know it was kids that tore up my plants. It's a shame that they don't seem to care about other people's property any more.

Sdlg in first post at 8pm @ 82°f
Mardi Gras Parade...not listed as a "noc", the lighter color blooms are from this morning and the darker ones are just starting to open @ 8pm. I will take another pic in the morning. All four of my clumps are doing this.
Lily tree exploding.
Very nice ones you both posted!!!
Mike, I am seeing that you have a lot of nice whites and near whites!!!!
Cindy, I love the white ones. They provide a nice contrast to the other colors. I got about ten of them from Casshigh fall 2011.
Mike, Great Blooms! I like all of them! Your seedling of BE X GME is really nice. Bradley Bernard is nice enough to make it worth 2 year wait. I like it.
I have a clump of Janice Brown that had a fan of what seems to be Pardon Me with it when it bloomed last year. That is funny you have had the same thing happen. Didn't think that would happen much. I can see where it would be easy for it to happen.
Your lily tree is beautiful! Deer ate mine it's second year.
Linda, Great Blooms! I really like Rose storm. It does look kinda like a rose.
This is ROSE STORM's first year of blooming, so we shall see what comes forth on the next blooms. Right now it seems to be a small flower, but I suppose that could change.
In fact, I had a really small 3"? bloom on my Russian Rhapsody and all the other blooms have been very large, so who knows?
Linda
I would like to experiment with three complimentary plants that bloom around the same time with approximately the same height on two and one as a thriller (taller than the other two). I will start out with about two fans each. Just for fun!
Linda, I have had small blooms on what should be bigger blooms before. I wonder what causes that to happen. Maybe someone else will know.
Mike, Do you know which one's you want to experiment with? Sounds fun!
